How to Create a Groupbox Control

Select the groupbox tool from the toolbar.  It's the one to the right of the static text button, and is a little box labelled "Box".

Draw the groupbox on your panel (place the mouse cursor where you want to start the control, hold the left button down, and drag it as large as you want).

Specify the title of the groupbox on its properties and you're done.

You can change the title of the groupbox by slow-clicking it; select the groupbox by clicking it, pause, then click it again.  Modify the text and press Tab to accept your changes.

When you draw a groupbox around controls, the controls are automatically bound together.  The presence of a groupbox does not, however, affect the behavior of the controls within it.  It's just a visual element.
